Centrifugal Clarifier
ACS3K & ACS8K Disc Bowl Centrifuges
The ACS3K & ACS8K separator incorporate the very latest developments in centrifuge construction. These are designed for intermittent discharge of solid, while separating suspension into liquid and solid, especially for clarifying in food and dairy industry. All parts in contact with the process liquid are made of stainless steel. The design conforms to international standards, and the machine is made in accordance with the general directives for this type of machinery.
Separators with a self-cleaning bowl are used in the clarification of suspension. Clarifiers with a hydro-soft inlet have been developed for gentle product treatment and also particularly for ensuring that the particle fines which frequently tend to pulverize are feed into the separating chamber without being damaged. Fig.1 shows a self-cleaning clarifier in schematic form.
The suspension to be clarified is feed into the disc stack (4) with a pump through the central inlet tube (3) and the distributor. The numerous individual separating chambers in parallel between the discs breaks down the product flow into many thin layers. The settling distance is accordingly minimized. A solids particle is considered to have been separated when it has reached the lower surface of the upper disc. The liquid flow is weak at this point. The particle is no longer captured by the flow, and instead it slides towards the periphery of the bowl under the influence of centrifugal force. An individual separating chamber is shown in Fig. 2. It leaves the separating chamber at the end of the disc (III).Along the separating line (I-II), the smallest particle capable of being separated is guaranteed to be removed. The diameter of such a particle is known as the marginal particle diameter.
The clarified suspension flows to the interior of the bowl and enters the centripetal pump chamber (6). The centripetal pump (7) discharges the clarified liquid under pressure out of the separator bowl. The solids move towards the periphery of the bowl and collect in the twin-conical solids holding chamber (5). The solids are discharged out of the bowl at definable intervals by way of a hydraulic system. The bowl discharges take place at full bowl speed.

ConTofu (Continuous Tofu)
ConTofu is a patented tofu curding system suitable for producing a variety of tofu curds. It has a continuous curdling system that heats or cools soymilk continuously to the curdling temperature, injects the coagulant in the gently flowing soymilk through a holding tube, and then partially removes the whey. The curd is now ready to direct to the tofu forming boxes and pressed Tofu curd is produced in this sanitary stainless steel system untouched by human hand. Ask for our VCT system that integrate soymilk and tofu curd making in a single continuous set up starting from soybeans. Available in capacities ranging from processing 100 – 600 kg of dry soybeans per hour. Smaller and larger systems can also be built.
